Not content with completing the Coronation Race on Wednesday, Gill completed the Carsington Water 7+ Trail Race in Derbyshire.
This is a 7 ½ mile clockwise circuit of the Carsington Water reservoir. The race is mainly on cycle tracks and is described as ‘flat in places’ however the race includes undulating sections and these see participants reach an elevation gain of 125meter.

Despite this, Gill had an amazing race. She finished in an impressive 1:26:24, winning her age category.
